According to Nutley police, about 2 p.m. Wednesday, a Daily Street resident in Nutley was sitting in his living room, when he saw an unknown man peek around a corner from the kitchen. When the suspect saw the resident, he fled out a rear window.

Nutley police said that the suspect entered through an unlocked, rear window.

The resident ran to the second floor and contacted authorities. Nutley police notified surrounding towns of suspects at-large.

After further investigation, detectives made the determination that Gilliam and Harrington were also responsible for a burglary on Farmingdale Avenue in Bloomfield earlier in the day.

Nutley Police Chief Thomas Strumolo said that the men had possessions tying them to the Bloomfield burglary. Nutley police also alleged that Gilliam rang the bell at another Daily Street residence with the intent to burglarize that home. He was apparently scared off, authorities stated.

Following apprehension, both were transported to Bloomfield headquarters.
